What’s the world’s biggest island? 【查看更多】

　　Greenland is the largest island in the world. It is in the north of Europe（欧洲）. Near Greenland is another island. It is small. It is named Iceland. Do you think that Greenland is green and warm? Do you think that Iceland is white with ice?

　　If you do, you are wrong. Not many people live on the big island of Greenland. That is because Greenland is not green. It's white. Most of the island is covered with lots of ice. The ice covering Greenland is higher than the world's tall building. What about Iceland? Is it colder than Greenland? No, it isn't. Iceland has ice, but not so much as Greenland. Iceland has a lot of springs（泉）. They give out hot water and steam（水蒸气）. The weather is not so cold as Greenland. And there are a lot of people living on it.
